To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There, is another structure on the opposite, or left, side of the river, called Zalabeeyia, whose style of architecture differs from that of Halabeeyia, and seems to have been used merely as a fort- ress. Both the buildings are seen from a great distance, as they are erected on high promontories projecting to the bank of the Euphrates.
I find that General Chesney had overlooked the existence of Zalabeeyia, because in his account of the latter ruin he calls it '^elebi, or Zelebi;'* whereas they ...are two distinct ancient sites on opposite sides of the river.
The Arabs have a very romantic story attached to the town of Zalabeeyia, about a prince who was in love with a beautiful princess that lived in the Halabeeyia palace, and as he was not allowed to have any communication with her, contrived to build a citadel on the opposite side of the river, from which he bored a tunnel under the Euphrates to Halabeeyia, by means of which he obtained his desired object.
After having spent about half an hour at the ruin, we went on to Goosbee, and halted there for the night at 12.15 P.
